(Closed) First Fitting and Question for Small Chested Bride

I received the dress and it actually fit well over the bodice. My dress is a Pronovias Fedra – a strapless number. My issue is that I have a small chest and on the day of my first fitting, I didn’t bring in the correct undergarment (big mistake). So my tailor told me to come back once I purchased the correct bra. I got a strapless bra that will help lift and fill out the dress, but the chest will still be too big. No way I am filling that out even with the extra padding. Has anyone else had experience with this and how it was resolved? Can they flatten out the cups so it doesn’t look like they are collapsing cups? I don’t think padding them fully inside will look natural when I move or bend over…Thank you.

I have the exact same dilemma with my dress! the chest area kinda dips in because I don’t have enough “meat” to fill it up… I’m trying to do without alterations in that area and trying to fix it but not sure how to… let me know how it goes!

I’ve had the opposite problem where I am very busty and didn’t fit the cup right. The original cup in the dress came to a point at a very different point than my natural shape so it looked like a plum sized bubble off my actual bust. They were totally able to pin and reshape it, so I would assume the same would be true for you.

I wore a long-line bra under my dress, and had the same issue you are having. I did not have any cups sewn into the dress, but the seamstress was able to take the dress in at the bust, so it fit perfectly on my wedding day.

I had cups sewn into my dress and I’m wearing a longline bra. With all that, there is a little bit of a dip right underneath my chest. It’s hard to describe. There was really nothing else that could be done, so hopefully I can figure out a fix or hope that it’s not that noticable. I may have to find something to fill that area. I also have double sided tape to help hold the dress up as well.

@JCar this is totally my situation! I tried buying those XXXpush-up bra (it was ridiculously embarassing going through check-out), and even then those didn’t work, and because they were XXXtra heavy, it was even worse!
